2018

As we enter 2018, we close out another year plagued by large data breaches, damaging hacks, and massive cyber extortion campaigns. Forbes estimates cybercrime will cost the global economy $2 Trillion per year by 2019, and an average of $6 Trillion per year on average through 2021. Organizations across all industries and sectors are impacted by the growing cyber threat landscape. Addressing specific cyber risk to your organization requires maintaining knowledge and awareness on current and trending threats, as well as best practices to address your specific risks.

The Garrett Group is proud to sponsor the Great Plains Cyber Summit where we will present a broad range of Cybersecurity topics to support you in assessing and reducing cyber risks to your organization. Speakers will also discuss information-sharing initiatives, threat response, proactive risk reduction concepts and future technologies. Join your local IT and security community for a unique opportunity to network and hear presentations from local and national Cybersecurity experts.
